New AOC application - advice please

Hi guys,

I am interested in applying for a CASA AOC for a single pilot vfr charter operation, while renting aircraft, I will mainly be running freight. I have read through the forums, and CASA website and understand the time and cost involved.

What I could not find anywhere is any detailed specification on premises, or detailed info on assessment of a Chief Pilot.

I am thinking of operating from home as I have no need for a premises on the field, and I have all the specified equipment such as fax machine computer, room for planning etc. Do you think CASA would have a problem with me doing this?

Also I have found that for single engine aircraft operation, a minimum of 500 hrs is required, but I can not find anywhere if there is a written/practical test involved in being approved.

Any help on these matters would be greatly appreciated, and if anyone who has been through this process has any tips or info, it would really help.

Many thanks

Ed
